My new/used Reflex arrived yesterday. Every bit as good looking as in the pictures the store sent.
It felt kind of gunky so I cleaned the fretboard and changed the strings.

First impressions:
WOW! What a beauty! There isn't a mark on it and it just looks like new. The case even had all the case candy.

The case is nice and light and has a guitar identifier tag.

Played for several hours last night and am very happy with the tone, the sustain, the responsiveness and the clarity of notes across the fingerboard and in all registers.

The workmanship is flawless.
I can see why so may people love these instruments. I'm a picky old picker and can find nothing to complain about.

I feel really lucky to have this instrument!

A reflex with a figured top is a pretty rare bird - congrats!

Oh, by the way...on this forum, when we see a top is is perfect, we like to say, "That top sucks".

Yea, that's the crappiest, suckiest, most god-awful, trashy, horribly uggo top I've ever seen :)

Haha but seriously, if my local guitar store had a reflex that looked like that I might have given it more than a passing glance. Nice score!
